Current and Static Electricity Bingo
Ms. Keegan
Clue: This flow of electrons comes from a wall outlet
• Alternating Current
Clue: This is the most common form of an electric discharge in nature
• Lightning
Clue: An electric current in a wire consists of these moving particles.
• Electrons
Clue: When a switch is open a lamp will be in this position.
• Off
Clue: Broken and frayed wires can create this.
• Short circuit
Clue: This type of battery has a chemical paste.
• Dry Cell
Clue: This scientific instrument can determine any type of static charge.
• Electroscope
Clue: You can find neutral atoms here.
• Undisturbed object
Clue: wet cells are many times found here
• Cars
Clue: Electrons cannot flow freely through this material because its atoms are tightly bound.
• Insulators
Clue: A positive end of a battery and a negative end of a battery can make electrons…
• attract
Clue: This is a conductor that is many times used in our circuits and wiring in many buildings
• copper
Clue: This is the flow of electrons through a circuit.
• Electric Current
Clue: D batteries have one and a half of these.
• Volts
Clue: Water, silver, gold and aluminum are all good….
• conductors
Clue: This subatomic particle has no charge and is located in the nucleus.
• Neutron
Clue: This device can turn mechanical energy into electricity.
• Generator
Clue: This is the buildup of positive charge or negative charge on an object.
• Static Electricity
Clue: In this type of circuit electrons can only follow one path.
• series
Clue: This provides a complete path for electrons to flow.
• circuit
Clue: When electrons only flow in one direction.
• Direct current
Clue: This type of battery is made from liquid.
• Wet cell
Clue: This is a subatomic particle with a positive charge.
• Proton
Clue: Electrons flow from negative to…
• positive
Clue: When batteries are placed negative to negative they can create a short circuit because the electrons do this…
• repel
Clue: When a light switch is on the path of a circuit is…
• closed
Clue: This circuit allows electrons to flow in more than one path.
